    Recently an enslaved man, named Dred Scott, has sued for his freedom. Scott is the slave of a U.S. Army Surgeon, Dr. John Emerson. Emerson first acquired Scott from a man named Peter Blow, and then proceeded to move to Fort Armstrong in Illinois, which we all know is a free state. From there, Dr. Emerson moved Scott to Fort Snelling, located in the Wisconsin Territory. During his stay there, Scott married Harriet Robinson, which would have been unnecessary if he was a slave. Then, in 1843, Dr. John Emerson passed away in the Iowa Territory. After his death, Dr. Emerson’s widow, Irene continued to lease out the Scott family as hired slaves. Three years later, in 1846, Scott offered $300 for his family’s freedom, but Irene refused. After his…

    Microeconomic theory is perhaps the most important course in all economics and business programs. I am just trying to discuss about the role of theory or models in microeconomics, discuss the basic methodology of economics, and distinguish between positive and normative analysis. Our main target in this assignment is to write an essay about microeconomics related topic which is published by the newspapers recently. After studying the newspaper I have got a microeconomic related topic which prices go up, as a result, demand will decrease. According to my previous study knowledge, I had some ideas about production cost, import cost, transportation cost and other similar cost by which we can determine the cost and profit. After taking the microeconomic course, it seems to me that the scenario is different. Here we need not only production and other similar cost and profit but also supply and demand, changing situation, income and substitution effect, equilibrium price, elasticity, cost behavior, market position etc.. Here my selected product is Onions (Deshi and Indian). This is because; onions are one of the most important commodities of our daily meal. Recently the prices of onions go up in the retail market not only Deshi onion but also Indian onion. Retailer said that, the prices of local onion increased by Tk. 10 a kg and was selling at Tk. 70 a kg while the just harvested onion was retailing at Tk. 45 a kg and Indian onion at Tk. 40 a kg over the last week due to supply shortage. So that, I have decided to write an essay about onion (Deshi and Indian) where Indian onion is the substitute of Deshi onions including the demand and supply of onions, equilibrium price, effect on price, substitution and income effect, production function, elasticity, cost function and market structure of onion.…
